About This Course
Building on the ideas and practices explored in Nurturing Your God-Given Creativity, this Partnering in New Creation course encourages you to understand the importance of the physical in our world, and to value God’s sanctification of all of your senses—not just your mind and heart. You’ll learn from artists who partner with the Holy Spirit in acts of image-, music- and community-making and reflect on your own understanding of beauty and its purpose. Ultimately, you’ll design a set of sustainable practices that cultivate your artistry and help you share it with the world.
Learning Outcomes
- Recognize making as an invitation to partner with God and neighbor
- Explore the role of embodiment in visual art, music, and community
- Craft a Maker’s Manifesto to guide your practice in service to the kingdom of God in the world
